Heart of Empire Chapter 473: Demon arms
After the dust settled, before leaving the Lost City, Dane entered the Empire Tower to check the situation of the Lava City. 』
Lava City is now a level 4 abyssal base with a population of 6,000. In terms of the characteristics of the abyssal demons, they can be said to be all soldiers, and there is no difference between civilians and troops.
In other words, the six thousand demons in Lava City are all warriors.
Among them, the number of low-level little devils such as lemurs and cowards is relatively small, only in the early thousand. In addition, there are more than 4,000 horned demons. Among them, the number of double-winged horned demons is about five hundred. In addition to these, there are a thousand demons of all kinds and levels. Among them, many are the same low-level demons as the horned demons, but they are relatively rare types. In addition, there are mid-level demons such as Babu demons, refining demons, bone demons, and succubi, with about five hundred heads.
This formed another unknown force in Dane's hands, and it was also the fifth formed legion in Dane's hands.
The army composed of six thousand demons is not weak anymore, at least stronger than the fourth army under the control of Pandolf.
In addition, the fourth-level demon base also has the ability to recruit corresponding units. From the lowest-level little devil, to the upper-level horned demon, to the upper-level double-winged horned demon, and then to the highest-level units that can be recruited by the fourth-level abyss base-babu demon and succubus.
There is no need to mention the fighting strength of the little devil and the horned devil. The little devil is very good, no better than the low-level caveman in Shaduolei. But the horned demon's individual strength is not weaker than that of the White Wolf Guard. These strong and powerful monsters are quite good heavy infantry ethnic groups. As for the two-winged horned demon, this is a very practical assault unit.
As for the strongest unit that Lava City can recruit at the moment, the Babu Demon is already an elite infantry unit that is not weaker than the Minotaur. An established Babumo will definitely be no worse than the Minotaur and the Korkron troops of the orcs.
The succubus, as a unit of the same level as the Babu demon, is the long-range striker in the demon army, and they control some very limited low-level spells. However, the practical use of these spells in legion combat is not very great. What they really threaten is the ability to throw fireballs with one hand.
Fireball is an out-and-out three-ring arcane art with considerable destructive power. The succubus army is a long-range army that can control the power of flames for a long time. If mages of the same level simply use fireballs to bombard these succubus, they must be courting death. A fifth-level mage who has just mastered the third-level arcane technique consumes all his mana and throws three or four fireballs. However, after a battle of succubi, throwing more than a dozen fireballs is not a big problem.
Of course, besides the fireball, the various multifunctional spells mastered by fifth-level mages are quite useful. In this respect, succubi are incomparable.
Based on this calculation, the combat power of the demon army is very impressive: the horned demon is the main force of the infantry, and its strength is strong, and the baboo, as an elite unit, is even more powerful. The double-winged horned devil is also very good as an assault unit. It can jump into the enemy's weak point in an instant. If used well, it will be a very effective killer.
And one of their few flaws is their low long-range strike capability.
The succubus is excellent, yes, it is a heavy firepower player, with fierce firepower and relatively poor durability, but it is much better than ordinary spellcasters.
But the succubus is a fourth-level unit, the number is a big problem.
As far as the demon army under the control of Constantine is concerned, the number of succubi is only more than fifty in the army of 6,000 people. Obviously, there is no way to support the entire army. , the need for long-range firepower.
In addition to this, the demon army has another defect, which is even more serious than the lack of long-range strike capabilities-that is, the lack of discipline.
The army of demons lacks discipline, even the most elite demon army.
Orcs are also notoriously poor in discipline, but after some training, orcs can still become very good soldiers, but demons can't, no matter how much they train, there is no way, this is the chaos of demons His nature is doomed and cannot be changed.
Poor discipline, there will be many accidents on the battlefield that the commander did not expect. The most direct manifestation is that the morale of the army is relatively easy to drop, and the army is easy to collapse. In addition, the soldiers will act without authorization, obviously wanting to strictly guard the position, but the demons are easy to rush out by themselves; what's more, poor discipline will lead to the inability to carry out many fine tactics, and the soldiers may fight Fighting and fighting each other~IndoMTL.com~ Even the formation may not be maintained.
Lack of discipline is a bad thing in general.
There are pros and cons. The recruitment method of the demon army is to build training rooms and portals for corresponding arms in the lava city around the abyss hall, and summon them directly from the bottomless abyss, and the number of recruits is relatively large. Moreover, demons are born with relatively strong individual strength. Above the little devils, any demon arms are only stronger than weaker than the arms of other races of the same level.
With such great advantages, they will naturally have their own disadvantages.
On the whole, in fact, every race is similar, with their own advantages and disadvantages.
For example, the Elf Legion has strong long-range firepower and good mobility, but lacks excellent heavy infantry and no front row, which makes the army appear relatively vulnerable when fighting a tough battle.
For example, the troops in the dungeon are outstanding in all aspects. There are heavy cavalry such as cold-blooded cavalry, powerful drow rangers and Medusa as archers. Medusa also has the ability to petrify. Assaulters with high mobility also have drow warriors who are not inferior to sword dancers, and powerful heavy infantry like tauren. But the army in the dungeon has another big flaw, the output is so low that the number of legions can't be raised at all. Of course, cavemen don't count.
As for the human side of the Templar, all aspects are very uniform, but there is nothing outstanding.
As for demons, they have a large number and strong individual strength, which is an advantage; poor discipline, this is a disadvantage.
However, for Dane, there are ways to make up for these things. Especially after holding four bases in his hands, he can completely do it, so that every racial force can make use of its strengths and avoid its weaknesses. Only in this way can the combat capability of the legion be greatly improved as a whole.
